How Was Your Commute Today?

[Catrin]

Here is a beautiful little scene I get to see every morning when I ride my 11 miles to work. I don't generally mix up the morning route and this is part of the reason why. It was a great ride this morning, though it started out on the chilly side I did warm up. Mornings like this one make me want to ride to work more than once a week but that isn't feasible right now. In another month that should change.

I only work 4-5 hours on Friday (I work 4 nine hour days) and I've been experimenting with different routes home. I will not consider taking the same route home as I take at 5:30 am as I would like to survive the commute this was taken at 6:10 am and was almost to work.

Due to my short day on Fridays I have a lot more flexibility in the homeward-bound route. It wouldn't be possible to really experiment closer to rush hour so this works out well. My route home today was a bit over 16 miles, so I rode around 27-28 miles today.
